Playing Tournament competition is a vital ingredient for competitive golfing. Since I returned to the game in 2009 I make the effort to play 6-10 Regional amateur open events each season. This year it paid off with winning the Silver in the Gross and Gold Medal in the Nett score section of the Masters Games. At the Naracoorte Golf course which had always been beyond my game ability up until now.

Dan,

Have you ever watched any Mark Crossfield on youtube? He seems to have a really simple philosophy to teaching, and playing golf. I’m sure if you are clever persuasively that you could organise a promotional thing with a company that fly him around – YourGolfTravel – to maybe go and learn from him? Maybe I’m being idealistic, but you’ve got a history of thinking big I guess…

Cheers.

That’s good to know. Looks like it’s not too expensive, which is good. The tourney is here for the next three years so if not this year definitely next year.
Thanks for the link!

Dan,

Think twice on the web.com qualifier.

Here is a link I found to a tournament entry form from a Texas stop back in April.

Your HC has to adjust to a 2 on a hard-ass course.

The guys taking the spots WILL shoot low to mid 60s BTW.
e.g. 67 didn’t make it in this case.

Maybe next year, you crazy kid.
